Trump’s Unaccountability: A Failing American Democracy
Several of Trump’s controversial nominees, including Pete Hegseth for Defense Secretary and Tulsi Gabbard for Director of National Intelligence, possess extreme views and/or face credible accusations of misconduct. While some may be blocked due to scandals, their replacements would likely share similarly objectionable ideologies. This pattern extends to other nominees such as Linda McMahon and Brendan Carr, highlighting a concerning trend of prioritizing loyalty over qualifications. The unconfirmed appointment of Tom Homan as border czar further underscores this alarming disregard for established norms.
